A year after the Second War of Shadows you, a lone adventurer, find yourself passing through the Mere of Dead Men when you are stranded at the tiny riverside village of Willowbow. The ferry that transports merchants and travelers up river to the village of Cobblelich, and the road that leads out of the swamp, has gone missing and it is up to you to discover why so you can continue your journey.
For 1-4 Players Level 4-6.
Tips:
Talk to Hal Willowbow to start the main Quest.
Check the Lost & Found Wardrobes for useful starter items.
This module uses the same K.O. and Death scripts as the Official Campaign. No respawning!
Not every fight is necessary. Choose your battles carefully!

This is my first attempt at building a module and this one was constructed as a way to teach myself how to use the toolset. I may expand many of the roleplay and side quest options in the future, but now that I'm proficient with the toolset I'd like to move on to other projects.
UPDATE:
Made many bug fixes and gameplay tweaks.
Added lore potions and two more magic bags.
Added almost 2500 words of conversation dialogue!
Cassandra's quest is now completable. Talk to her for new dialogue options as you progress through the adventure. Her quest has two different endings, depending on your joices.
Oh, thank you! I plan on building again when I have time. Glad to see people are still enjoying this mod.

A bit extra in the rating for Cassandra's dialogue.

I played this mod with my play group in multiplayer. Worked fairly well as a MP mod. Heavy hack and slash but with enough interesting side things to mix it up.

Played the module multiplayer at Neverwinter Connections with a party of four level 4 PCs (dropped to three PCs for the second part of the module). Ended up just shy of level 5 by the end. A relatively short scenario, but well done and offering a lot of scope for multiplayer interaction. We skipped a small part of the content (two of the caves). Pros: -- Battles were well-balanced for the party and made you think/plan ahead to be successful. -- NPCs had enough distinctiveness to make them interesting. -- Area design well done, very atmospheric. -- Companions can fill in well with smaller parties; believe that four PCs is minimum in multiplayer, had to pick up Cassandra when we got down to three. Cons: -- Having two companions (the last one especially) added significant lag to areas previously lag-free. -- Cobblelich outdoor area lagged considerably, but was still playable. -- Companions should stay in Cobblelich when done, had to drag them back to Willowbow; no way to separate them from the party. Thanks very much for creating a fun module that works well in multiplayer.

Nice module. The best are the massive battles. Interesting swamp area. Too much treasure earned. A recommended short module.

My vote, already posted my comments.

Well, this ha to be the shortest module I have played in a while; I enjoyed it though. I think the dialoge was perfect for the size of the module; it was a fine time spender as I was bored this evening.

Nice work, especially for a first try. Most of my comments have already been said.

a good mod, maybe picking up a level depending on the level you start on. magic items though are very powerful. decided not to sell some in this mod, max 4000gp. moved onto rhod and my character had 250000 gp. prob reduce power of items
